Cold night but no moose.

It’s really annoying because they’ve changed things here on WP and not for the better I’m afraid, now I need to re-learn how to put in photos here in the post and I don’t like it. Before I had a bar above what I wrote where I easily could just press a media button and […]

I didn’t expect to meet that on our walk.

Greylags on they way out to the bog. A beautiful sunrise and a cold morning, not as cold as yesterday but cold enough to kill the plants that had survived yesterday but was badly hit by the frost yesterday. My neighbours tomato plants said good buy and the one I had in the greenhouse Β that […]

So much colder than I thought it would be.

My neighbours keep finding the Monsters old collars in their garden, this one has been lost for at least six months πŸ™‚ The night was much colder that I thought it would be, it was -7C (19,4F) when we went out on our morning walk and I could see that my neighbour had had to […]

Nasty work but it needs to be done :-)

  Even though it barely reached 10C (50F) and the wind kept on blowing it wasn’t that bad today. The sun shone all day long and most of the wind came from west so most of it never reached my garden. I picked off around 25 small ticks from the dogs after the morning walk […]

That wind never stops.

  Another summer warm day here but with an annoying wind blowing all the time, ok it is warm but the wind never seem to calm down any more. We’ll have one more nice day before the arctic winds return again. This time it looks as at least the nights will be warmer so they […]

Summer warmth.

The forest owner cut down three birch trees around the old root cellar. My neighbours will now have evening sun but I’ve seen them every day for 26 years so it looks so empty now. I had written a really long post and just had to leave the computer for a few minutes and during […]

Warm weather is on the way.

  Yesterday was horrid, nasty cold and strong winds directly from the arctic and cloudy almost all day. Not even the dogs wanted to be outside for more than a few minutes at a time. I had turned off the radiator in my bedroom so I woke up freezing in the middle of the night […]

Lots of hard work.

We have a saying here that when the birch leafs are as big as mouse ears it’s time to cut the roses. So yesterday morning I woke up pretty early and was preparing for going to my health center. I chose that place long ago since it was close to my work place, from here […]

Warm days and cold nights.

A little Robin was kind enough to sit still long enough in the sunshine for me to get a photo of it. I must admit that I didn’t think it was as cold as it was when I followed the dogs outside when we had woken up, -6C (21,2F). I guess that there was no […]

Emptying the compost.

The last tomatoes from last summer. After a really cold night warm air flowed in so we had some morning mist here this morning. I was a bit too tired to have a that early morning walk with the dogs so I missed most of it. It stayed chilly for quite some time but since […]

I’m so tired of that everlasting wind.

I took these photos yesterday when we were lucky to have sunshine on our morning walk. We had a really spectacular sunrise this morning just before the clouds covered that gap in the sky. I was a bit surprised about it since they guessed we would have clouds covering the sky all day. They sort […]

I’ve been working in the garden.

  It has been a really nice day here even though the weak wind was pretty cold. Below 0C (32F) temperature during night again but it looks like the coming night will be the last one in a while to have that. From now on it’ll be cloudy but warmer winds will finally fly in […]
